This is a Pic of the raer Ladderbar clip that I buaght for the build. Only diff will be the housing. I chose a M9 Moser Housing. Also here is a fr disk conversion kit that APD.com makes. This will be installed when flooring and tubbing is complete.Then I will move on to the fr suspension and strengthening the front.  Im chooseing not to go with tubular fr end due to I want the street apeal look still.

I just got done the body wrk done on the dash and buaght a couple of guages to fit. The style of guages I went with are Autometers NV style. 2 1/16 + 5" NV tach. Now when I first started tearing down the car I said I needed a wow factor...Its not huge but Its diff and I like it. Can you car guys reveal the signiture on the top.....Hes a God to most of us car guys.!!

The color I chose for this project is Duponts Extreme Green. I love this color. I havnt decided if I will go 2ttone or all one color with small silver pinstripe some where. Any ideas? The other car is a pic of wht the color looks like on a full scale. Sweet!!

Good looking start on the Rambler! What are your plans for power? Should we assume a "Big Bad Cleavland" :) Good choice of color also.

Hey what's up the 5.0,tranny,and rear end are in. I need to do the driveshaft longer. That color will look really good on your rambler go with it. Green one almost looks like a rambler. So we have a good idea. Those are some big meats on the tires. Ssickk man keep us posted. Later
